Dr. Oz: 4 Shocking Ways to Bust Your Fat Butt
On average women weigh 24 pounds more than in the 1950s. Everything is getting bigger to accommodate our increasing bottom line. Toilet seats, car seats, seat belts, movie theater seats have expanded to fit our growing butts.
A group of very brave women stood on the Dr. Oz stage in their underwear and a Dr. Oz Show t-shirt.
Diana says her butt is spreading faster than a rumor in Hollywood. She's been trying to break up with her butt for a long time. Other women said they want to get rid of their butt. It's the one part of the body many women want to hide. No matter what you do, it's still there. It's sloppy, saggy, jiggly, and dimpled.
Dr. Oz showed a tissue sample to subcutaneous fat layers from the butt. We're talk big layers and multiple layers of fat that lays over the muscle in the back. and layers of fat over the muscle. Dr. Oz explained that the butt is the first place where we gain fat and it's the last place where we lose weight.
One thing we do wrong, says Dr. Oz is sitting. Sitting down causes stretching of the butt fat by as much as 30% and it makes the fat in the butt even bigger.
Dr. Oz shared his four step plan to bust your fat butt.
Dr. Oz Butt Busting Plan Step #1: Derriere Diet
The butt busting diet is all about eating carbohydrates. Dr. Oz says you want to have carbohydrates to burn the fat in the butt. Complex carbs, when broken down, give you a slow steady stream of energy. Say yes to carbs and no to fat. Fat that you eat will travel straight to the behind.
Dr. Oz's Derriere Diet Rules
Dr. Oz has some rules to follow to on the Derriere Diet to maintain the right mixture of nutriends.
- 275g of carbohydrates
- 150g of protein

Dr. Oz provided examples of foods for each meal of the day.

Dr. Oz Butt Busting Plan Step #2: Booty Buster Supplement
Kudzu Root contains phytoestrogen which blocks storage of estrogen. It's the storage of estrogen producing fat on the back side that increases the junk in the trunk. There's a special place for estrogen to live in the body and that's the butt. The body will store fat in the butt in order to store the hormone.
Dr. Oz recommends taking 100mg of Kudzu Root daily with breakfast to block the storage of estrogen, and thereby fat, in the booty.

You want to bust your butt and have a burger too! Dr. Oz sent his medical students off with his credit card to find and buy the healthiest fast food burgers.
The average American eats about 150 burgers in a year, about 3 per week. And the average American eats a fast food meal 3-4 times per week. [That's a lot of fried food and questionable ingredients. I'm proud to say that I'm not average!]
Dr. Oz says that a fast food meal may be east and it may be low cost but it certainly is not healthy. But don't fret, there are healthier fast food burger options out there. To find them, follow Dr. Oz's rules for eating fast food.

Dr. Oz The Miracle Swap for Sugar
Dr. Oz says to throw away your cane sugar and use coconut palm sugar instead to prevent sugar crashes and stop the cravings that make you gain weight.
Coconut palm sugar is made from coconut sap which is dried and crystallized into a sugar that contains potassium iron and vitamins.
Providing a more balanced blood sugar reaction, coconut palm sugar is low on the glycemic index. Dr. Oz showed an animation of the roller-coaster ride blood sugar levels go through when cane sugar is consumed. For some the ups and downs of sugar high and crashes happen 3 to 4 times a day.
Providing a more balanced blood sugar reaction, coconut palm sugar is low on the glycemic index. Dr. Oz showed an animation of the roller-coaster ride blood sugar levels go through when cane sugar is consumed. For some the ups and downs of sugar high and crashes happen 3 to 4 times a day.
Coconut palm sugar absorbs more slowly and therefore has a lesser rise and fall on the blood sugar chart than cane sugar.
Use coconut palm sugar as an alternative to cane sugar where ever you use sugar. It has the same amount of calories as cane sugar and can be used one-for-one in place of cane sugar.
Professional bakers Vinny Buzzetta and Cammy Picciano of Staten Island Cakes used coconut palm sugar in their cupcakes. Mr. Buzzetta baked the cupcakes and said he was skeptical and hesitant to use it at first however he found it was easy to use and creamed with the butter very well. Ms. Picciano was the taster and said if she didn't know cane sugar was substituted with coconut palm sugar she would not have been able to tell.

I use pu-erh Tea and love it. I typically buy it from www.phatea.com
ReplyDeleteThanks for the recommendation, Anonymous. I also found another online company that sells all four teas recommended by Dr. Oz.

I tried the butt busting brownies. Followed the directions to a tee and found them to be gross. I couldn't even swallow, had to spit it out. But I'm liking the other advice. I drink 2 cups of Pu-erh Tea in the morning, and take 1 glass of 2% milk at night. I've also been doing a lot of his fat butt busting workouts. I'm hoping this will get me over that weight loss plateau I've hit. I'm 20lbs down and seem stuck there.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment, Happ. Good for you for trying the brownies and other items recommended. I'm sorry you didn't like brownies. From the ingredients, I thought it might be an aquired taste food.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the 20 pounds lost so far! Good luck with reaching your goals!
